Fyr Hot Sauce First Look and First Taste

I am not generally a hot sauce guy but was excited when I saw these new sauces from www.fyr.com.
Each one of these three hot sauces has a delicious, unique flavor and while they do have some heat they aren't just hot for the sake of being hot.
The Red was probably my favorite of the three. Great hot sauce flavor with a huge hit of acidity and sweetness from the blood orange.
Gold has Bird's Eye peppers, saffron, and golden raisins and brings a nice sweetness with some of the floral saffron notes.
The Black sauce with black garlic and black limes is probably the richest of the three flavors.
These would all be great on standard tacos, burritos, etc. but they also would bring some unique flavors to chicken, pork, beef, seafood, vegetables, eggs, or whatever else you wanted to throw it on.
If you are a fan of hot sauces and flavors give them a try.

Hahah interesting flavor....I'm guessing that doesn't mean good

No, it was delicious. Guessing it was the Gold??? Totally different flavor than any other hot sauce I have ever had.

I'm not familiar with the FYR owner but he must either have some middle-eastern ethnicity or really like the food because these are a lot of Persian flavors. Black lime is something I enjoy using in place of, or alongside with, fresh lime or lemon - it's great in stuff like pho, beef stew, chicken tacos, seafood marinades. I get mine from Burlap & Barrel (no affiliation, they just have nice fresh spices).

I will have to try some of the black lime from Burlap and Barrel. I have heard of them before and they look like they have some great stuff. It is an awesome flavor that would add some nice complexity to even simple dishes. Not sure on the ethnicity of the team at FYR but yeah, there are some pretty noticeable Middle-Eastern and Persian flavors in some of the sauces which I think is a nice change from most hot sauces on the market.

Pace picante sauce is basically tomato sauce.

Saffron is a pretty delicate flavor and is used commonly for coloring. To me it has a vague dusty flavor. Strange to bury it in a hot sauce with overpowering flavors.
